New NHS plan will slash foreign recruits from 34% to less than 10% of workforce

UK PM Keir Starmer TOI Correspondent from London: UK PM Keir Starmer has announced plans to cut the number of overseas staff recruited for the NHS from its current level of 34% to under 10% by 2035, according to the 10-year NHS health plan unveiled this week. The largest cohort of foreign doctors and nurses in the NHS are Indian nationals. As of June 2023, there were 60,533 Indian nationals working as staff in the NHS. Of these, 10,865 hospital doctors and 31,992 nurses were Indian. 'While the NHS has always welcomed recruits from abroad, today, the NHS disproportionately relies on international recruitment…We will need to reduce the NHS' dependence on overseas staff from its current level — where 34% of new recruits have a non-UK nationality. It's our ambition to reduce international recruitment to less than 10% by 2035,' the plan states. It also says UK medical graduates will be prioritised above overseas recruits for foundation training, and will be prioritised, alongside those who have worked in the NHS for a significant period, for specialty training. It said that the 2020 decision to open competition for postgraduate medical training to international trainees on equal terms with UK-trained graduates meant the competition ratios for postgraduate places had increased to a level which was 'unacceptable'. Ramesh Mehta, president of BAPIO, which represents Indian-origin doctors and nurses, is opposed to the plan. He said a third of UK-trained medical graduates left the country last year and went to places like New Zealand, Canada and Australia. 'The number of medical staff required will continue to grow and will be impossible to have enough local graduates to fill the roles, especially if they continue to move abroad,' he said. He said the authors of the plan are 'living in dreamland' because unless things in the NHS change, local graduates will continue to emigrate. 'Last year almost 10,000 Indian doctors came to the UK to take the screening exam to work in the NHS. But many have no jobs and some have gone back. There are no jobs in the NHS at a junior level. Many doctors can't get postgraduate training in India so that's why they want to come to the UK,' he said, explaining training posts should be given on merit to those already working in the NHS, not on nationality.

Non-alcoholic liver disease gets Centre's scan guidelines

Panaji: Health services will now follow the guidelines issued by the Centre for screening patients susceptible to Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). The guidelines which were issued last month, a health officer said, will help doctors examine more patients. The officer said that 48,000 patients had been screened before the guidelines came into force. 'NAFLD was recently recognised as a major non-communicable disease and included under the National Programme for the Prevention of Non-Communicable Diseases,' the officer said. 'The programme began in Sep 2023, but the screening criteria guidelines were not prescribed by the Union health ministry.' Operational guidelines emphasise screening criteria based on non-invasive risk scores, as stipulated by the Community Based Assessment Checklist. This approach will help health workers segregate people from high-risk populations. Individuals susceptible to NAFLD will undergo further investigations and treatment. Since there is no known cure for NAFLD, individuals are educated about maintaining their blood sugar levels and other healthy practices. 'Four medical professionals will be nominated from each state and sent for a one-day training session to Delhi,' the officer said. 'They will later train medical officers, auxiliary nurses, midwives, and chief health officers to make the optimum use of tools to identify the at-risk individuals.'

Nipah restrictions in 20 wards in Malappuram, 6 in Palakkad

Health authorities in the State have intensified the vigil against the spread of the deadly Nipah virus following the detection of one case each in Malappuram and Palakkad districts. Palakkad District Collector G. Priyanka on Friday (July 4) declared six wards in Thachanattukara and Karimpuzha grama panchayats as containment zones after a 38-year-old woman from Thachanattukara tested positive for Nipah. She is battling for life at a private hospital at Perinthalmanna. Malappuram Collector V.R. Vinod declared 20 wards in Makkaraparamba, Koottilangadi, Kuruva and Mankada panchayats as containment zones. An adolescent girl from Chettiyarangadi near Makkaraparamba, who died in Kozhikode on July 1, tested positive for Nipah. Residents within a 3-km radius of the infected persons' houses have been advised to avoid gatherings. They have to wear N-95 masks when venturing out. People in Malappuram and Palakkad districts have been advised to avoid crowding as well as visiting patients in hospitals. Educational institutions in containment areas, including anganwadis, tuition centres and madrasas, will remain closed. Shops can function from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Health Minister Veena George, after reviewing the situation at a high-level meeting of health officials on Friday evening, said that 345 people were on the contact list of the Nipah-affected persons. She warned people against disturbing or driving away bats from their colonies. In Malappuram, 211 people are on the contact list. In Palakkad, 91 people are on the contact list and in Kozhikode, 43 people are on the list. Those on the contact list should remain in quarantine. All the 43 persons in Kozhikode are healthcare workers. Health workers in Palakkad, Malappuram and Kozhikode districts are working overtime to prepare the route map of the Nipah affected persons and to trace their contacts. Both the persons reportedly developed symptoms of Nipah on June 25 and 26. Health staff will collect three weeks' data from Thachanattukara (in Palakkad district) and Chettiyarangadi near Mankada (in Malappuram district) and will investigate if anyone there had died due to encephalitis or pneumonia in June. The district administration has taken over two floors (sixth and eighth) of Government Medical College, Palakkad, as part of its preparedness to fight the Nipah spread. People have been asked to exercise vigil against Nipah, whose symptoms include fever with severe headache, fatigue, sore throat, muscle pain, vomiting, breathing difficulties, paralysis, blurred vision, mental disorientation, seizures, and loss of consciousness. Caregivers and those in close contact with people showing such symptoms should use N95 masks and gloves as the virus spreads through bodily fluids. People have been warned against consuming fruit and vegetables partly eaten by birds or animals. Ms. Priyanka cautioned the public against disturbing or chasing away bats, warning that stressed bats may produce more bodily fluids, potentially increasing the risk of virus transmission.
